Font engine 204 can be configured so that portal is shown in graphic user interface (GUI) 201, standard and/or Custom link can access the corresponding system related resource for complication system part by changing GUI navigation.GUI can lead to Font engine or reader appropriate are crossed to provide, GUI can for front end system a part or otherwise with front end system The communication of system system.In the example that portal is webpage, web portal pages can be transmitted to web page browsing appropriate by font engine Device (reader), the web browser are configured to provide suitable GUI, and wherein web portal pages are displayed in the GU.Then, As described herein, being described as can be various by or via one or more functions that font engine or GUI are executed It is more specifically executed in example by reader appropriate.

Portal can be shown to user, and wherein the user can navigate to the chain of the portal of corresponding system related resource It connects, thus which can be retrieved by the user by GUI 210 to use.For example, providing the reader of GUI can pass through GUI receives the selection of link, and will be transmitted to resource host system (example appropriate to the request of corresponding system related resource Such as, resource host system 106), which can return to reader for requested resource, to be shown by GUI Show.Reader or font engine 204 can be with the interactions of coordinates user and corresponding system related resource.Reader or font engine Downloading (retrieval) of the system related resource from resource host system can be not only influenced, but also system related resource can be influenced and arrived The upload (insertion) of resource host system.

Be in the limited various examples of access in system related resource, font engine 204 can be configured to such as based on The user authentication code provided in advance makes user be used to access the authentication of resource and authorizes automation completely or partially.In this side Face, font engine can be such that authentication and authorization is fully automated, intervene without user.Alternatively, font engine can make Authentication and authorization portions automation, such as coordinate by the submission of soliciting user authentication code and by the submission of user authentication code To resource host system.This may include any a variety of different types of visits to the system related resource at resource host system It asks, such as safety equipment (such as firewall) access, incision type agency, Virtual Private Network (VPN) channel access etc..

In some instances, it can increase or delete by font engine 204 to the custom link of system related resource It removes.Similarly, system related resource can be added into resource host system (for example, resource host system by font engine 106) or from resource host system-kill, this can produce additional or interruption custom link.For system related resource Increase, front end system can request addition come from contact management system (for example, contact management system 104) appropriate making by oneself Justice link, or it is added to corresponding storage 206.Deletion for system related resource, font engine 204 can request to delete It is deleted from corresponding storage except the custom link of the interruption from contact management system, or by it.In system related resource Increase or deletion can be directly impacted at the resource host system other situations under, for adding custom link or deleting Except the suitable request of the custom link of interruption can be sent to font engine or link from corresponding resource host system Management system.

In some instances, it may be desirable to be via the making by oneself instead of standard linkage to similar system related resource Justice link is to access system related resource.In these examples, contact management system (for example, contact management system 104) is come from Or the custom link of corresponding storage 206 can be used to by user from specific standard linkage be directed to it is corresponding from Define the instruction of link.When generating portal, font engine 204 can replace standard linkage with corresponding custom link. Alternatively, font engine alternatively will can be redirectrf to corresponding custom link to the request of standard linkage.

More generally illustrate as follows, a kind of device can be provided, which is configured for use as or otherwise real Apply front end system 200 and its corresponding element.Device may include, including one or more fixing or portable based on hard The electronic equipment (for example, smart phone, tablet computer) of part is embodied in wherein.For example, the bar code of front end system 200 Reader 202 and font engine 204 can be implemented by hardware based electronic equipment.Font engine can be configured to Contact management system (for example, contact management system 104) communication, in one example, contact management system is far from electronic equipment. Font engine can be configured to the portal that generation includes the standard and/or custom link to system related resource, wherein should System related resource passes through one or more 106 trustships of resource host system.In the various examples, one or more customized chains Connecing can retrieve from the corresponding storage 206 at remote linkage management system or electronic equipment.And in one example, At least one resource host system can also be implemented by electronic equipment.

Fig. 3 illustrates contact management system 300 according to an example embodiment.Contact management system 300 can be One example of the contact management system 104 of the resource access system 100 of Fig. 1.As shown in figure 3, contact management system 300 can be with Including supervisor engine 3 02, it is configured to receive the one or more to the system related resource for complication system part The request of link, and in response, corresponding (one or more) link is provided.The link, which can be maintained to reside, stays in chain The corresponding storage 302 in management system or with contact management system communication is connect (for example, file storage, database purchase, Yun Cun Storage) in.And in the various examples, other than for the standard linkage of the system related resource of corresponding part, link be can be Custom link.

In the various examples, it can be what access was limited to one or more links of system related resource.Show at these In example, contact management system 300 may include or be coupled to access-control system 306, and the access-control system 306 is through matching Set access-control strategy that (one or more) certain limited link is applicable to restriction, execution and/or management.Access-control System can be configured to provide access-control according to any number of different access-Controlling model.Suitable access-control The example of model includes self contained navigation (DAC), forced symmetric centralization (MAC), lattice based access control (LBAC), is based on The access control (RBAC) of role, beam-based alignment (ABAC), using control (UCON), or based on above-mentioned model Any number of other models.

Access-control system 306 can usually be configured to execute and visit for the one or more of one or more links Ask-control strategy.In one example, access-control strategy can authorize one or more users to access (one by application Or multiple) permission of link or other rules limit being directed to link or otherwise generate.Permission can usually authorize visit Ask the user of the access linked to request to (one or more), this can be indicated by identifying.Identification can be with any more Different sides is planted to limit user.User's identification may include unique identifier (for example, user name, email address) and authentication code (for example, password, key, safety label).User's identification also may include one or more roles of user.Furthermore or alternatively Ground, identification may include one or more attributes of user, such as core attribute, specific background attribute etc..In these examples In, permission can identifier/authentication code based on user directly by access mandate to user, or (one or more based on user It is a) attribute and/or (one or more) role be directly by access mandate to user.

Under the background of the relevant document of system for complication system, for example, permission can be in such as independent complicated system On the basis of system, complication system part, the tissue of maintenance task, type or in independent complication system, complication system part, dimension The access that (one or more) links is arrived in authorization on the basis of protecting task dispatching.In this respect, the user for being under the jurisdiction of tissue can be by (one or more) link being limited in the respective organization that only permission allows to access, or may be limited to can be specific group with this Knit relevant type or independent complication system.In another example, relevant to (one or more) complication system part User's (wherein the user can understand (one or more) the complication system part in detail) can be limited to only describe (one or more It is a) corresponding part should (one or more) link.

Access-control system 306 can be configured to based on Policy receipt requirement and make decision to authorize or refuse To the access of (one or more) link.In one example.Access-control system can be coupled to contact management system 300 supervisor engine 3 02, contact management system 300 can be coupled to front end system, the front end system of such as Fig. 1 in turn 102, access-control system can receive request from supervisor engine 3 02 and access one or more links with authorized user.The request The user and/or its (one or more) that can identify request link just requested complication system part.In an example In, request may include the identification of the user of request in itself, or any other necessary part of identification can be stored from identification In the enough identification (for example, identifier/authentication code) that is retrieved.
